The Dry Doom

I was reminded that I've posted every story from the September 1952 issue of Beware! Terror Tales #3 except for this one, also illustrated by Sheldon Moldoff (see our last post.) So we finally actually accomplished something this month and delivered not one, but TWO complete issues of a classic precode horror comic! Check the THOIA Archive for these other doomed yarns: "The Haunting White Shadow",and "Death's Round Trip."

We'll see ya in a few with a fantastic ACG story submission. PS: Anyone at SDCC right now?

Water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink--especially if you're a jerk. Oh this one was satisfying to read, the revenge was creative and well-deserving. The trick used to finally get Dusty to sell his gold for a drink was terrific. Ghost water! Nice!

Okay, that wraps up the Beware! Terror Tales for awhile... as always, thanks for the comments. Thanks for the heads up on the duplicate page too, Brian (been awhile since I've done that around here, haha)

"...an online repository of vintage comic fear fare where individual stories from long out-of-print issues are posted in high resolution, page by page. For a fan of EC, Atlas and other Silver Age-era comic companies, it is pure heaven (and hell)..."---Bryan Reesman (Attention Deficit Delirium)
